It baffles me that people actually think Momonga/Ainz is trapped in Yggdrasil game or got trapped in a new npc world. It's like they watched the show with their eyes closed. Ainz and his guild base got transported to another world. This world has nothing to do with the game and this world is very much real. like how Konosuba's, ReZero's, Tanya the Evil's worlds are. The reason that this other world has Yggdrasil items and magic is a spoiler but its not because the world is somehow a game or something dumb like that. It is a very real functioning fleshed out reality, that Ainz and his guild base have been transported too. Episode 1 and 2 do poorly convey the fact he got transported, but if you knew how to read, on multiple occasions Ainz says he's in another world. Hell, even using common sense and watching more than 2 episodes you would be able to know this fact. Yet majority of the people that watch this anime think its he's stuck/trapped in a game.

this is definitely my favorite anime besides Made in abyss. I can't blame you though, the anime is a extemely poor adaptation of the incredible Light Novels. it sucks that if it got the Frieren treatment It would have been most definitely way better for so many more people. the novels are some of the best peices of fiction I've ever read.

this is one of my favourite isekai series but... posting something so obvious... huh, I was hoping for a sequel announcement, unfortunately, it was not.
It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

I had assumed it was a game world and that slime guy logged out of it. Also assumed that the usage of "I'm in another world now" meant "I'm not on Earth in Japan right now playing my video game, rather a world that looks and operated close to the game I'm dedicated to" but eh. It's possible to still enjoy something without knowing every possible thing about it. My view can be wrong, but is it really wrong if it's the view I believe? Great topic, I enjoyed reading everyone's input here!

Read the LN/WN.
Dragon Lords summon rare items from other dimensions. But world items are either in a player's inventory or a guild' treasure room. So they ended up summoning players/guilds.

because in episode 1 of Overlord season 1 when the mc waits for the game to shut down at midnight it ends up being the opposite and can't log out of the game yes its probably no longer a game in the real world but since he waited for the shutdown to happen and didn't log out before the shutdown happened he's trapped in a dead game

and what you say might be a theory since he never died and reincarnated he died in the physical world due to being trapped in the game as his character from the game shutdown and I don't believe there is any players like him left in the world of the game because they probably left before the shutdown happened is it possible they die and get reincarnated in the world the mc is in nope so instead of it being a istekai it's fair to say this is a RPG anime

Because the MC is literally trapped inside a "videogame".

The real world doesn't have game menus you can see that are identical to Yggdrasil.
So that's a videogame-like world with Yggdrasil mechanics.

Wait. I thought the video game world became real, essentially. They're in a completely different world than the video game took place in?

Terrible take. He technically is trapped in a video game, but everything is sentient and has its own mind. More like No Game No Life than anything else

dude this might sound crazy to you, but guess what. the anime follows and adapts the source material (light novel), dipshit. its also stated in the anime. nobody is a fucking npc with sentience besides Nazarick. it got transported to a real fantasy world. if you would not watch while on your phone the entire show you would know that. yet you've only seen episode 1 and 2 and think you the know the show, spewing some fanfic that "he's stuck in the game world like SAO 🤓☝️" not sure why your so adamant on your personalized fanfic. not sure what else I can tell you man, go ask anyone in the overlord fandom reddit, or hell go to the OVERLORD fandom wiki.

i see, so he died irl and got isekaid or how?

his consciousness went along with his game character and guild base to another world. it's safe to assume his body in his world is a rotting corpse.

dawg what are you on about 😭. the only visible menu huds in the story are the functioning ones in nazarick. this might sound crazy to you, but the guild base and NPCs became reality when they got transported to another world along with Ainz. crazy right ? new information for you. the mc is not trapped in a video game at all. the Dragon Emperor summoned world items from another universe and accidently summoned players along with them, or sometimes guilds. the world has nothing to do with the game anymore. I'm just going to say more spoilers because somehow after reading my original comment you still think he's stuck In a video game like SAO. Yggdrasil players have been summoned to this world by "the Dragon Emperor" his ass didn't know what a game was and just saw that there was some powerful items jn another universe, he then summoned said items. those items sometimes brought players with them, and guild bases aswell. and they became reality post transportation. the human race was on the brinc of extension in the world, but with the help of 6 Yggdrasil players, they grew. that nation became the Slane Theocracy and they worship the "six great gods" who were the 6 players. obviously they think they are God's, because they don't know what a fucking video game is because this is a medieval world. it's like going back in time in our world back to medieval times and trying to get them to understand technology. they'll barely understand it. anyway, these 6 great gods used a world item and changed how magic functions in this world to make it based on a tier system like how the magic system was in Yggdrasil. this made it so Dragon lords could no longer be born with Wild Magic (Dragon Lord magic) so the powerful dragon lords slowly died out and there's more false Dragon Lords. the reason they are called "False" is because they can't use wild magic. only TRUE Dragon Lords can use Wild Magic. Platinum Dragon Lord (from season 4 episode 11) is a True Dragon Lord. he Hates the "puh-layers" because of what they did to his world. and he blames it all on his father, The Dragon Emperor.

Because the MC is literally trapped inside a "videogame".

The real world doesn't have game menus you can see that are identical to Yggdrasil.
So that's a videogame-like world with Yggdrasil mechanics.

dawg what are you on about 😭. the only visible menu huds in the story are the functioning ones in nazarick. this might sound crazy to you, but the guild base and NPCs became reality when they got transported to another world along with Ainz. crazy right ? new information for you. the mc is not trapped in a video game at all. the Dragon Emperor summoned world items from another universe and accidently summoned players along with them, or sometimes guilds. the world has nothing to do with the game anymore. I'm just going to say more spoilers because somehow after reading my original comment you still think he's stuck In a video game like SAO. Yggdrasil players have been summoned to this world by "the Dragon Emperor" his ass didn't know what a game was and just saw that there was some powerful items jn another universe, he then summoned said items. those items sometimes brought players with them, and guild bases aswell. and they became reality post transportation. the human race was on the brinc of extension in the world, but with the help of 6 Yggdrasil players, they grew. that nation became the Slane Theocracy and they worship the "six great gods" who were the 6 players. obviously they think they are God's, because they don't know what a fucking video game is because this is a medieval world. it's like going back in time in our world back to medieval times and trying to get them to understand technology. they'll barely understand it. anyway, these 6 great gods used a world item and changed how magic functions in this world to make it based on a tier system like how the magic system was in Yggdrasil. this made it so Dragon lords could no longer be born with Wild Magic (Dragon Lord magic) so the powerful dragon lords slowly died out and there's more false Dragon Lords. the reason they are called "False" is because they can't use wild magic. only TRUE Dragon Lords can use Wild Magic. Platinum Dragon Lord (from season 4 episode 11) is a True Dragon Lord. he Hates the "puh-layers" because of what they did to his world. and he blames it all on his father, The Dragon Emperor.
@arc1only How can you miss the point so badly?
Also, that's a lot of text. Do you need a friend to talk with or something?

Momonga opens info menus inside Nazarick. In world magic is basically the same as the Yggdrasil. Guild mechanics like resurrection still work.
Still, you say it's not a video-game like world.

If the Yggdrasil game became reality in a fashion similar to a lot of isekai, it would be only slightly different from what Overlord is. So, it's okay for people to confuse it, and it matters literally 0% on how you perceive the anime.

nah it just baffles me how people can watch sum and have 0 media literacy or understand absolutely nothing. at the point try getting them to watch some cartoons with simple story lines and they can build up their critical thinking skills from there. end of the day this show ain't like SAO whatsoever and the mc and his guild base got isekaid to a real world, like ReZero, Konosuba, Mushoku Tensei, Tanya the Evil. you wouldn't call those "trapped in video games" and you wouldn't call Overlord one. it's like like someone watching Attack On Titan and coming to the conclusion it's actually all a video game. stupid right?

""also that's a lot of text" only reason I had to explain cause yo ass couldn't even comprehend that he's not stuck in a video game even after I explained in the original post.

@arc1only Yes, that's a lot of text. However I can read and understand perfectly what you wrote, despite being a random incoherent tangent unrelated to anything I said.

Differently than you who can't handle the very simple paragraph I wrote. Is your brain malfunctioning?

"ReZero, Konosuba, Mushoku Tensei, Tanya the Evil" That's the examples you set. Did you ever see Tanya pull up menu that shows her party members? Or perhaps Subaru using a haudoken like the games on his world do? Maybe Orsted reviving Rudeus with his pocket change?
Those are all things that Momonga did after being transported into that world.
Instead of barking incoherent nonsense, say something to disprove that Overlord world is a videogame-like world or just don't bother.
And don't backtrack either. My first comment you took issue with said exactly that.

dude, the only video game like things are the NPCs and Nazarick that became reality after being transported. If you bothered reading I'm saying the world around Nazarick is a different and very much real isekai world. the world itself is unrelated to the game. not sure why you find it so hard to believe. Even everyone in this comments are questioning why I'm stating the obvious with this post, the reason is because of you and the few other people who watched the show with their eyes closed. please just go to overlord fandom wiki or just use common sense my guy. Hell you can even go to the OVERLORD subreddit and ask anyone there if Overlord takes place in a video game world. I Brought those examples up so you can fucking understand what an Isekai is. Kazuma Died and got transported to another world, Subaru blinked and somehow transported, Tanya died and got transported, and Nazarick got Isekaid/summoned to another world.

@arc1only You are dense af. You ask me to bother reading the incoherent stuff you write while you are either too indulged in you own stupidity to understand the difference about a videogame world and and a videogame-like world.

I've been hitting what you are getting wrong this whole time and you really have to come over and over and over again and miss the point.
Imagine demanding people to pay attention to you while you can't "decipher" very simple language.

As I said, it looks like you need a friend. A one-sided friendship when you just keep ranting about some topic and don't expect any replies.
I'm done with you. Don't bother me anymore, go to chatgpt and write your rambling for it to read.
